3 Good Things (Redux)

Desmond79

Since the thread, which began May 2021, seems to have vanished, I wish to create a new one. 

From Darkness to Light. Smiley

1. I paid for a condensed tumble dryer, which I reserved on Tuesday; for delivery, tomorrow. Also paid for a three-year warranty. (In cash) 

2. I made a poem, entitled 'Storm in a teacup', about the arrival of Agnes. (SEYMOUR!) 

3. Bought more Farm-Fresh milk today.

    I've good reason not to trust May after that night it SNOWED whilst I was travelling UP to leeds to pick up a consignment of large plasma screens.

    Suffice to say it snowballed into an epiisode that cost me a set of new locks for my car, two weeks spent mainly in bed in great pain, and my one and only opium smoking experience. (It blew away the pain like magic, but then I still couldn't get out of bed, now not because I was in such pain, but because the drug made me disinclined to get up...)

    Pretty useless drug really, on the face of it, but when your back is "fubar" it tends to end up with a feedback loop of spasming pain, which it did seem to break, and I was back on my feet the next day.

    I was suprised it worked really, I'd had it for ages, (possibly years) "saving it for a rainy day" as it were, and it was made by the person who gave it to me here in the U.K. and not in the far east. 

    No, I'll never trust the month of May again...

    Yes! For all the reasons you mention. I like to see all the spring blossoms too, and everything growing, the glorious greens of new leaves..Deciduous tree

    The light goes on forever, evenings outside (weather permitting) watching the bats flit about.. BatBat

    May has always seemed full of possibility to me, even the name agrees! 

    (a pleasant fancy, if never rooted in fact!)

    May is a very good month......the one that I look forward to arriving....more than Spring.  I think it is because summer hasn't properly started yet, so there's still all of that still to look forward to, whilst already enjoying long daylight hours and very comfortable and optimistic temperatures and weather - ie like summer has already come.
